About this ebook


Zombies. The outbreak began in New York. Soon it had spread to the rest of the world. People were attacked, infected, and they died. Then they came back. No one is safe from the undead.

As anarchy and civil war took grip across the globe, Britain was quarantined. The British press was nationalised. Martial law, curfews and rationing were implemented. It wasn’t enough. An evacuation was planned. The inland towns and cities of the United Kingdom were to be evacuated to defensive enclaves being built around the coast, the Scottish Highlands, and in the Irish Republic.

Bill Wright, a Westminster insider and an advisor to a future Prime Minister, broke his leg on the day of the outbreak. Unable to join the evacuation, he watched from his window as the streets filled with refugees. He watched as the streets emptied once more. He watched as they filled up again, this time with the undead. Then the power went out.

He is trapped. He is alone. He is running out of food and water. He knows that to reach the safety of the enclaves he will have to venture out into the wasteland that once was England. On that journey he will ultimately discover the horrific truth about the outbreak, a decades old conspiracy, and his unwitting part in it.

This is the first volume of his journal. (73,000 words)

Other books in the series: 1: London. 2: Wasteland. (Zombies vs the Living Dead) 3: Family. 4: Unsafe Haven. 5: Reunion. 6: Harvest. 7: Home. & Here We Stand 1: Infected & 2: Divided.

big zombie fan here, and I got this one free using bookbub. that said I've given it three stars because while it was unique in the way that the main character had a previously broken leg to contend with, his connection to and knowledge of the government's inner workings was a bit stretched for me. the first half was slow, but it picked up once he left his home.

Honestly its tough to read, I'm only about a fourth of the way thru and I feel like I've re-read the same opening bit about 9 times. When its focusing more on what the Character is doing its really interesting but I don't need to read about the Evacuation of London 6 times and about how many people there where moving around and the plan for it over and over again.

So many Zombie books are out now and I like zombies. This one was unique. It's a story that keeps your attention and interesting. I wonder how one man telling his story could achieve this, good author ide day. Very little blood and Gore, which I liked. One character sharing his life made it very different. Good story. Thank you so much.
